"I got this recipe from About.com. It was posted by Diana Rattray. I was looking for a way to use up my peaches and plums and there wasn't a recipe like this posted here. Don't forget to use proper canning techniques. Make sure everything is sterile!!"

  1. Soooo good! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
     
  2. The family loved this. I followed the recipe as written except added 1/2 Tbsp butter to help reduce foaming. This jam set up beautifully. Has a wonderful flavor.
     
  3. I tripled the recipe, minus the pectin and half the sugar. After bringing to a boil. removed the "solids" and simmered several hours to reduce the juice to. Add the fruit back in with 1/2 tsp powdered vanilla because my fruit was noa little bland this year. Very yummy. I'll do it earlier in the season next year as I used the last of my peaches to do this batch. Thanks for posting!
